You know a lot of soviet buildings was built by prison labor? Let’s make a next meme about egyptian pyramids. They look great too.

Way more shit is done with prison labor in the US. I guarantee. We have 25% of the prison population of the world, and the USSR had a tendency to send a massive amount of their prisoners to Siberia, which would make it difficult to help build apartment blocks several thousand miles away.

What’s with that whataboutism? I don’t care about the US. Why do your type brings it up every time, like it makes USSR’s wrongdoings more acceptable. It doesn’t. It’s rather a lesson to learn and not repeat in your country.

and the USSR had a tendency to send a massive amount of their prisoners to Siberia, which would make it difficult to help build apartment blocks several thousand miles away.

So? They built infrastructure there, yes, so it’s enormous territory can be somehow crossable. And they also built infrastructure, housing and plants\factories all over it’s territory. Gulag wasn’t just a one small camp, it’s the Main Office of Camp (Managenent), it had a lot of people to send elsewhere, based on what Kremlin wants.

Capitalism has a solution to the tent problem though

UK - The home secretary is proposing new laws to restrict the use of tents by homeless people, arguing that many of them see it as a “lifestyle choice”.

valkyre09,

It sure is a lifestyle choice. The choice is the tent or a cardboard box, fucking insensitive assholes.

San Diego already banned camping in the city. The county board of supervisors either has proposed that they do the same or already has.

San Diego county is bigger than two states. They are trying to outlaw homelessness in an area about 65 miles north to south, and roughly the 86 miles east of The Pacific Ocean.

These are almost all Democrats, btw. We didn’t vote for Republicans.

essellburns,

Not in the UK. Our government is looking to ban the tents next. That’ll fix the homeless issue 😕

Thanks, i pride myself on making innovative memes that point out the glaring hypocrisies of Capitalism in new and inventive meme formats. Thankfully the glaring hypocrisies of Capitalism have been around for decades giving me plenty of material for OC. /s

Have you tried non fiction?

@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

Lmao what is fictional about this?! Are you saying the homeless camps are fictional? Or are you saying the soviet priotitizing prefabricated apartments to increase housing supply is fictional?

DirkMcCallahan,

Don’t forget removing benches so that the homeless can’t sleep on them (capitalist solution, of course).

RememberTheApollo_,

TBF the communist solution is for homes in general, not just homelessness.

Atleast the building shouldn’t be of low quality but most of them are due to corruption and most of the funds are waisted as a result

Well, I hate mmunism as much as the next Eastern European but this is absolutely true. Commie blocks rule.

AI_toothbrush,

I have no problem with communism(i think socdem is a better system but thats a discussion for another day) but the moment a tankie here mentions anything about the soviet union being better than capitalism just look up holodomor.

Sagar,

Now that is what I call a truely amazing meme for showing the amazing capitalism abilities!
